The Gills are Coloring up a bit here in Texas

AND managed 2 red ears in another lake the other day in the mix as well .....:highfive
the bluegill were strong ,frisky and plump and the bite was simply as good as it gets .
in around 4 foot of water along a wind blown bank right off a heavy algae bloom that ended in a round 3 foot of water .
a few of the gills in the mix had some color coming on good .
little 1/32 jigs tipped with crappie nibbles under a small float on a 5 foot ultra lite ,good stuff :cheers2
orange handtie was better than a chart plastic btw ....
KABOOM is near :Cowboy

Nice fish! I’m headed out here in about 30 minutes hoping for a good morning of fishing.

Now we’re talking ! Nice Gills !

That's what I'm talking about, it don't get no better.:ThumbsUp

Some pretty colors on those

Good report on those gills.

If my recollection is correct we won't see bluegills much until near end of April. However the green sunfish should be coming out to play in the next week or so. Thanks for the ride, Ketchn!

Some real beauties, ketch! I’ll take pans on U/L every day of the week. They looked like they could put up a good fight.

Small heads with big bodies, those gills and red ear are healthy and getting plenty to eat.

Pretty coloring, thanks for sharing.

Great looking catches !

Mighty fine looking gills there.

Sir, you’re spot on! Those fish are losing the blah winter colors and looking rather sharp in those pics. Glad you got a new to keep you smilin!

Very nice. Gotta love those colors!
